Just an Adidas tracksuit. I’ve got a jacket like that. GF calls it my Russian Gangster tracksuit.

I’ve ownded nearly ten I Three Stripe pants in the past six years. I love them and they’d the most comfortable pants I’ve worn.

They’re cheap if you know where to look. MSRP is like $70 but it can be had for $30 or less. I’ve gotten 2 for $30 once. Australian prices might be funky though and might not go on sale much. But if you come to the US.....

If you want them really cheap you can hit up dhgate and get the knock off ones, they're pretty legit. That's how I get soccer jerseys for like $13

Jesus, I typed that on my iPad and it looks like I had a bout of the autism when I wrote that. Man, that keyboard and autocorrect fucked that message up something awful.

I always thought those things are considered too much outside of Eastern Europe? Actually, they are a bit much even there, unless you're the kind of guy interested in "permanently borrowing" some people's belongings.

I'm actually quite sure the cops could reliably reduce the crime rate over there just by jailing everyone by going through all the shipping addresses for those.

lol I own like 5 pairs of those in various colors. 2 of them are black with white stripes, one is white with blue stripes and the other is a duller, gray-green color with black stripes.

They're comfortable as hell in the winter, because I don't buy the tapered leg ones, and so I can wear long socks and these pants and be good to handle the Chicago winters.

Yeah, all jokes aside, the association is very different when not worn together with gold chains and military hairstyles.
They are super comfortable indeed. I have a couple of old ones to wear around the house, mostly pants, from Reebok (what happened to that company?) and they last eternities too.

Yeah my Adidas Three Stripes and Tiro pants are six years old now and been through some shit but look like new. Those are the oldest ones since I basically buy a new pair each year in a different color.

Reebok fell off hard. It’s all Adidas and and Nike for the younger crowd. Under Armour for 40+. Reebok just picks the leftovers. I’m just speaking about brand image and not quality but not many people are endorsed by Reebok. The biggest is JJ Watt but that’s not enough.

Reebok used to be great. The last thing I bought from them was probably more than 7 years ago or so, and that's also the last time I recall seeing something decent from them at a sports store (the pants).

For comfy shoes, I'm pretty stuck with Nike, as they just feel much better than anything else on my feet. I just don't dig their designs as much as I used to, as they all seem very much alike these days, and they lack any wider shoes too other than their skateboarding series.

They also don't make many non-sporty looking shoes anymore too, as it seems like their designs have become more ridiculous on average. I miss their casual designs, as they were as comfortable as their sports shoes while looking normal, so I could wear them to work too. I check their line-ups every year anticipating new lines like that, but it's all about the shoes that look like running shoes or tennis shoes these days, many of them completely over the top.

I loved the Suketo series. I have like 10 pairs of different models of that design, they are hands down my favorite (for comfort AND looks), but getting worn out now, and they sadly stopped making them about 4 years ago:

Yeah, I’ve been on Nike running shoes for the past five years or so. The Free Train are my go tos until I got the Air Max 2017s for free lol. The I bought a pair of UltraBoosts on sale this past Summer and I’ve been using those.

It I think the new casual look involves basketball shoes and Nike is going hard on those. Adidas has the casual look we’ve been used to in decades past going for them now. The Stan Smiths were surprisingly popular when I was seeing them for like $60 last year.

Never owned Under Armour shoes but their hoodies are the shit as are their training tops. Lol I own a UA sweater too, which is odd, but it was on sale and it looked nice. UA has been doing well with business casual too since they’re big in to golf.

Maybe my definition of "casual" has changed a bit, as all of the current Nike "casual" shoes that I saw look way too ridiculous.
I guess my casual is something I could wear anywhere. I wouldn't go to the office in basketball shoes, even working in tech, even on the west coast. I miss designs that are simple, minimalistic, comfortable all arounders. I have Timberland shoes like that, but they are nowhere as comfortable as Nikes, business shoes are just not comfortable at all, and I just wish Nike still made decent casual/business-casual shoes that don't look like I just jogged to work while hitting the court in my work clothes on the way.

These days I'm into Nike for the comfort, as I find them much better than anything else in that regard, but I just can't find an appropriate design.
